“Omg! Every time I’m here I love it more! Absolutely the BEST food, service, people. It’s all 10 stars! I used Suthern Cluck to cater a meal for 48 people (my son’s theater group) and it was raved about for weeks! They are the best at all they do and they do it with a superior execution! Chef’s kiss! 😘“

“The interior has exposed brick and such a great, cozy vibe. It was packed when we got there, so we ended up sitting at the bar but honestly, it worked out perfectly. The bar seating was comfortable and made the whole experience feel relaxed and fun.

Service was great from start to finish, friendly, attentive, and on top of everything even with how busy it was.

The food was just as good as the atmosphere. The steak was cooked beautifully and paired perfectly with green beans and sweet potato fries. The fried pickles were crispy with just the right crunch and dipping sauce. And the seared tuna dish was fresh, flavorful, and plated so nicely.

Definitely a spot with good energy, great food, and service that keeps everything running smoothly, we’ll be back.“

“Rosie was the best waitress!!“

“My husband and I decided to go on an impromptu brunch date and realized we hadn't been to Aquaterra Bistro in quite a while. We were pleasantly surprised by how much we enjoyed it!

The atmosphere has a relaxed, casual feel while still feeling special enough for a date. We started with the smoked cream cheese appetizer, and it was incredible. The blackberry preserve and citrus mustard paired perfectly with the smoked cream cheese and created a combination of flavors that was absolutely delicious. Easily a 10/10 dish and something I'd order again in a heartbeat.

For our main course, we both chose the seafood omelet. We were pleasantly surprised by how generously it was filled with crab and shrimp. Combined with plenty of cheese, it was rich, flavorful, and incredibly satisfying.

Overall, it was a wonderful brunch experience with great food and a welcoming atmosphere. We'll definitely be back for another date soon!“

“This restaurant is breaking the law by charging a fee to use debit card ! Federal law says

“It is illegal for merchants to charge a surcharge for using a debit card in all 50 U.S. states. Federal law, specifically the Durbin Amendment to the Dodd-Frank Act, prohibits these surcharges, and card network rules also disallow them. Merchants are permitted to offer a discount for paying with cash instead, or to charge a surcharge on credit cards (in states where this is legal), but they cannot charge a fee for debit card”“

“This place has good food. The chicken plate is top tier and I enjoyed it a lot. Also another thing to get is the collard greens with the turkey. The service is very good she was very helpful and welcoming and I will definitely be coming back. Also I enjoyed the size portions and so if you are in the mood for good comfort food, that’s well seasoned this is the place. Touch of flavor“
